Serum-soluble malarial antigens and immune complex nephritis in Plasmodium berghei berghei infected mice
J Trop Med Hyg.
1976 Jun.
Abstract
Swiss albino mice infected with Plasmodium berghei berghi showed the serum-soluble malarial antigen and antibody on day 10 of infection onward. Immune complex nephritis in these mice developed on the seventh day after inoculation. The infected kidneys revealed the deposition of mouse gamma globulin, mouse beta1C globulin and malaria antigen along the capillary wall of the glomeruli. Proteinuria was detected on seventh day of infection. Serum-soluble malaria antigen in probably responsible for forming the soluble immune complex which causes glomerulonephritis in infected mice.
